This news appears to be a misunderstanding or a fabrication. There is no confirmation from the SPFL or any other official source that a match between Rangers and Club Brugge has been postponed.
In fact, the opposite is true. The Champions League playoff match between Rangers and Club Brugge is scheduled to go ahead as planned. News reports from August 2025 confirm that the first leg of the tie is scheduled for Tuesday, August 19, at Ibrox Stadium.
What has been widely reported is that Rangers had initially requested to postpone their Scottish Premiership match against St Mirren, which was scheduled to be played between the two legs of the Champions League playoff. This request was made to allow them to fully focus on their European campaign. However, Rangers later withdrew this request, and the league match against St Mirren will now go ahead as planned on Sunday, August 24.
This decision was made after discussions with the SPFL, St Mirren, and other stakeholders. It seems that while a domestic match was at one point considered for postponement, the crucial European tie against Club Brugge was never in question.This news appears to be a misunderstanding or a fabrication.
